Comment of the Day

June 3, 2010 | Uncategorized | Comments (0)

What, in the Constitution, gives government – at any level – the right to tell independent merchants and service providers how much they can charge for their products or services? Isn’t the right of entrepreneurs to set their own prices, in accordance with market conditions, one of the freedoms which we supposedly cherish in this country? If we allow some prices to be capped, won’t that eventually lead to all prices being capped by politicians who want more and more power?

Perhaps it’s time to look at what these politicians, and those who support them, are making. As Jesus probably said, “Those who would control the prices of others shall have their prices controlled!”
